Personal stories
Memories of the war years contribute to our understanding of an episode which would produce countless individual stories in many different languages, from both allied and axis sides, from the heart of the conflict or the distance of home, set down in diaries and letters, published as books, captured in images and rewritten for screen - or simply told, one-to-one, as reminiscences shared. Seventy-five years afterwards, these stories are still told, embargoed material continues to be sporadically released, and new interpretations emerge.
